Abstract

  In this article, several proposed guidelines in head trauma in children, intracranial hematomas, brain injuries such as contusion and diffuse axonal injuries are briefly reviewed. In some children with upper airway disease, airway obstruction progresses rapidly, and prompt diagnosis and treatment are required. Imaging findings in such upper airway disease are also reviewed.
